Capclave Roundup

I only made it to two panels (plus the Broad Universe reading).

Laura Montgomery's presentation on current U.S. space law was fascinating (and quite useful for writing accurate near future science fiction). It got me thinking about how space law might evolve (which sparked a brief discussion about how we deal with people shooting nuclear reactors into space. For reasons).

I also made it to the panel on human genetic engineering, always a fascinating and controversial topic.

Attendance seemed about normal. It was good to see the regulars (especially Danielle Ackley-McPhail, who's had some issues lately).

The new hotel was okay but they need to open their bar later! 11pm? Seriously?
